Zimbabwe: Minnesota Dentist Being Sought For Lion Poaching

[houndawg]

They were out at dawn and found the lion at 0900. Pretty easy to understand. Now I realize you struggle with reading comprehension... Densesdawg, proving his stupidity again and again...

I'm glad some people don't have PETA logo glasses. Also sound like the guide reported the incident prior to the PETA news flash.

“I went to Parks and reported what had happened. I wish I had taken the collar."

translation: "I tried to cover it up and now I'm in a world of shit."

[Gil Dobie]

Then dont do it

Yeah, I probalby should stop. But it's just so fun to kill animals so I can hang their heads on my wall. I should probably stop dogfighting while I'm at it.

Dogfighting is illegal, all hunting is not.

I always wanted to be a crotchety old man, guess I found someone to take lessons from.

Dogfighting should be illegal. Not all hunting should be.

you're a day late and one grape drank short, kleak

Clenz, again: Religion has to do with the meaning of life for human beings. life after death or lack thereof, and so forth. Stuff that is understandably pretty important to people.

A friggin' lion getting killed is not. People acting like it's SO important to them that a friggin' lion got killed in Africa when it has absolutely no relevance to their own situation is absurd. I mean, we actually had one comedy host friggin' fight back tears on TV over it. I mean c'mon.

Actually religion is about control and separating the feeble-minded from their money.

Missed that little gem of Johnny's...

“The world is not something indifferent, raw material to be utilized simply as we see fit. Rather, it is part of God’s good plan, in which all of us are called to be sons and daughters in the one Son of God, Jesus Christ (cf. Eph 1:4-12).”
Pope Benedict XVI, Apostolic Exhortation Sacramentum Caritatis, February 22, 2007

Matthew 6:26 - Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?

“The world grows smaller and smaller, more and more interdependent…today more than ever before life must be characterised by a sense of Universal Responsibility, not only nation to nation and human to human, but also human to other forms of life.”

- His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama

"The land is sacred. These words are at the core of your being. The land is our mother, the rivers our blood. Take our land away and we die. That is, the Indian in us dies." —Mary Brave Bird

Religion also has to do with values, John.

Deer. How about the fucking deer?

No dawg. Religion is about the fact that we are the only species able to contemplate its own mortality. The only species that must grapple with the realization that death is coming. The only species able to contemplate the question of whether or not our essence lives on. That sort of thing.

And Lions don't friggin' matter. They really don't.

That's nonsense John. It really is. One doesn't need religion to do any of those things.

wait

you really are retarded arent you?

why dont you go back, read the post, and then consider your reply

religion most certainly IS about mortality, and its evasion

a uniquely human thing

Read HD's post again. None of the things JSO mentioned require religion. Religion is a convenient "answer" to unanswerable questions.

its more about convincing the stupid that evading mortality is possible.

Oh NO! Damn it...not again!

Bump in memory of TMAN, his last post!

See FCS thread if you have questions.

Mark Bekoff, a professor of ecology and evolutionary biology at the University of Colorado, has written widely about animal emotions, and he tells many anecdotes of wild animals grieving. He describes sea-lion mothers wailing as they watch their offspring being eaten by killer whales, and dolphins struggling to save the lives of dying infants, then mourning afterwards. Elephants are also known to display grief, showing visible distress over the dead bodies of companions. Jane Goodall tells a story of a young chimpanzee, Flint, who stopped eating, became socially withdrawn and eventually died following the death of his mother. There are many other tales of animal grief in the wild, from wolves to llamas to magpies.

Some human's can't contemplate their own mortality. I doubt my 9 month old sits up at night wondering about her eventual death. I'm not saying you are wrong. Just....myopic.

your 9 month old also cant wipe her own ass or drive a dump truck, either

some of you are arguing with JSO because its your default position to do so

he is correct in that the core of religion is to explain the unexplainable - 2000 years ago that was a long list, but at its heart was, "is this all?"

today the list is shorter but the main question- the ultimate one- still remains, and it is still the prime mover behind religious faith

what happens after I die

And people are realizing that religion offers no palatable answer. Research continues to confirm high numbers of people are losing their faith.

thats kinda what this board is about. My point is that religion isn't necessary to wonder about the meaning of life. The whole point of the sales job known as religion is that yes, you can avoid mortality, but to do so you must do as I say while you're here on Earth. JSO seems to believe that if you aren't religious you can't possibly understand these things.

Same thing that happened a year before you were born cid, life goes on. Had a lot of folks ask what it was like to go through cardiac arrest, and all I got to say is nothing, nothing at all.

Re:JSO

JSO, like me to a certain extent, often exposes the ugly truth of things - sexual appetites, human response to environmental catastrophe, the plight of animals, minorities, religion...

He's often right on, but he usually stops there, and that's why people argue with him. He rarely entertains the notion that we can do better or transcend. Sometimes he even argues that status quo is the best route, an aggressive fatalism perhaps. He seems to never offer any solutions because solutions would make his arguments, which for the most part are simple observations, null.
